Pumpkin Patterns For Free
Halloween is just one week away people are extremely excited! With Halloween comes not only just trick & treat but the pumpkin carving crave as well.

So have you had a chance to get your pumpkins carved. Not yet? Then I bet you are looking for some cool and zangy ideas to carve your pumpkins.

Recently I read on a report in Asia Fair, and according to which you can download the patterns for your pumpkin carving ideas over there.

Usually you can print them off for free or extremely inexpensive.

The most popular that I have seen is the Twilight’s Edward, Bella and Jacob carving patterns. Need some secret advice?

Don’t decorate your pumpkins too early. Because what happens then is that you get bored of it too soon and it looks bad on the actual day!

Halloween Pumpkin Carving Designs Tips

Free pumpkin carving stencils for Twilight's Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are some of the most popular templates this Halloween. Download Edward, Bella, and Jacob pumpkin designs, and print them off free or inexpensively on your computer. You have the leaves changing, it is starting to get cold and you see pumpkin being carved. While this can be a dangerous thing, if you don’t take the right precautions. But with great tips, you will be on your way to having a great time with your kids.

Tips for Preserving a Carved Pumpkin:

Mold and dehydration are the two main contributors to pumpkin rot. Prevent both by covering the carved areas and interior of pumpkin with petroleum jelly. This will keep the pumpkin from drying out and will slow the growth of mold.

Another option is to add a small amount of bleach to a spray bottle filled with water. Spray the pumpkin daily with the bleach mixture; the bleach fights mold while the water keeps the pumpkin from drying out too quickly.

Spray the pumpkin with a store-bought pumpkin preservation spray. Make sure that it is environmentally-friendly and nontoxic. Note: Even with these precautions, a cut pumpkin will only last for a few days to a week, so it’s best to cut your pumpkin no earlier than a few days before your Halloween festivities.

Pumpkin-Carving Tool Options:

A serrated knife works well for creating a hole in the pumpkin. It’s preferable to carve the hole in the bottom of the pumpkin to cut off any bumps so the pumpkin will sit level. It’s also much easier to place the pumpkin over a light source rather than lowering the light, like a candle, into the pumpkin.

A large metal spoon or ice cream scoop is great for removing the pumpkin seeds. Another option is a battery-operated spinner that’s made specifically for scraping the insides of the pumpkin walls.

Small, paring knives are great for carving designs into the pumpkin. Pumpkin-carving kits, made specifically for kids or adults, are another good source. Battery-operated, pumpkin-carving knives also make quick work of even intricate designs.

There's no catch with some online Halloween companies other than you'll want to window-shop and see what else they have. These websites are smart. They know you'll need carving knives, more intricate carving patterns, and maybe a Halloween Carving Ideas book while you're at it. Jack-o'-lantern carving transfer tools and carving saws can all be purchased from them.
